Mingo Frank Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Selling my unfired .69 caliber Charleville musket repro. It is a copy of the 1777 model with the brass pan. Has been refinished to a more authentic appearance with oil finish on stock and French grey iron furniture. The stock has been decorated with many white pound beads. This would fit in for War of 1812 era up through mid 1800 for a Plainsman interpretation. Many of these went west for the fur trade. Priced at $425.00 shipped to lower 48. It will ship in a shipping box from TOTW. https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=ED02C957FB623D7!519 If someone would let me know if the pic link works, or not, I would appreciate it.

Trigger Mike Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Who made it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mingo Frank Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Indian made from Discriminating General. This is the 7th musket I've had from them or MTV and never had a problem ( except a broken frizzen spring that MTV replaced under warranty) with any of them. I've shot blank loads and roundball loads in all but this one without incident. This one is unfired. Mingo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mingo Frank Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Yep...I'll send along a couple flints and a healthy wad of tow for loading or cleaning. This thing sparks like everything. Mingo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mingo Frank Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Trigger Mike, No more strands of beads as payment. All else will work fine. You definarely need a French gun to celebrate the 4th. Mingo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three Foot Johnson Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Who made it? <echo> - Yes, who made it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mingo Frank Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 Again... It is imported from India by Discriminating General. I believe they use several different companies that make the guns. Here is more info from the TOTW site on the same musket http://www.trackofthewolf.com/Categories/PartDetail.aspx/489/1/AAI-831 Mingo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
